Sensation and Perception

PSYC-4410

What are the processes that allow humans to detect information about their surroundings, recognize people and objects, and perceive depth and motion? This course will focus on the physiological and neural mechanisms underlying sensation (sight, hearing, and touch), the qualitative aspects of human perceptual experience, and how perception and action are interconnected. Color perception, object recognition, space and motion perception, and perception and action are all examined.
